I had always wondered what it was that motivated people to dress up as their favorite fictional characters and attend these large conventions with others in costume. I never quite understood it until 19 May, 2005.

The release of the final Star Wars movie was an event every Star Wars fan around the globe was waiting for. Despite what fans may have thought of Episodes I & II, we were excited! ? My friends and I had bought our tickets well in advanced and were prepared to make this one midnight screening we wouldn’t soon forget!

Hours before the movie premier, a large crowd had already gathered and the line extended well beyond the indoor lobby into the hot afternoon sun outside.

When we last checked in, I had just gone to bed after a restless night filled with what seemed like unlimited energy.  Some may have already formed suspicions as to what was going on with me that night, but unless something plainly smacks me in the face, it shall remain unnoticed for quite some time.

A few hours after peacefully falling asleep in my nice warm bed, my phone begins to ring.  I groggily reach over and open my eyes just enough to see who is calling.  Its that girl from the last post! ???Why is she calling me at 3:30 in the morning?" I thought to myself as I debated whether or not to answer.  My initial instinct was to answer the phone immediately, but for some reason I decided against it.  Perhaps I was slightly disappointed our movie night was cancelled, or maybe I simply wasn???t thinking straight.  Either way, the phone stopped ringing before I answered and I drifted back to sleep seconds later, without giving it a second thought.

It wasn???t anything special, and truth be told, the plan was somewhat loosely made the night before.  I was actually looking forward to it, since I can be super relaxed around her without bothering to impress her.

Several people have told me time and time again that men and women can not simply be friends without someone developing feelings for the other, and each time I inadvertently tested this theory it was proven correct.  It was never my intent to become involved with any of them in the beginning, but at some point the line was crossed and I didn’t even realize it until it was too late. Finding myself suddenly smitten by a friend always unsettled me. Do we really have such little control over those kinds of feelings?
